Right, I've read on here a couple of times that KT Tunstall is a tedious Dido, Katie Melua etc. clone. I think this is cobblers and I'm loving KT's album at the moment. I think it's far more interesting and musically varied than Dido and that lot.

I thought what she did on Jools Holland with the echo pedals etc was really interesting and good. Someone using avant garde techniques but in the context of a real proper song, not to disguise their lack of talent.

Aynone can use a loop pedal (or whatever they're called) and make it sound half decent. The truth is she's a bit rubbish, but does seem to have good taste in music (I read an interview where she was going on about Can and Tom Waits. Bollocks I think...) If only she could transfer some of those to her own music...
